A new study launched this week highlights the work of Andhra Pradesh Community-Managed Natural Farming (APCNF) and the remarkable untapped potential of agroecological natural farming in Andhra Pradesh, India.  Spanning over 6 million hectares, and involving 6 million farmers and 50 million consumers, the APCNF represents the largest agroecological transition in the world. Amidst the diverse landscapes of Andhra Pradesh, this state-wide movement is addressing a multitude of development challenges���rural livelihoods, access to nutritious food, biodiversity loss, climate change, water scarcity, and pollution—and their work is redefining the way we approach food systems. Farmers practicing agroecology have witnessed remarkable yield increases. Conventional wisdom suggests that chemical-intensive farming is necessary to maintain high yields. But this study shows agroecological methods were just as productive, if not more so: natural inputs have achieved equal or higher yields compared to the other farming systems—on average, these farms saw an 11% increase in yields—while maintaining higher crop diversity. This significant finding challenges the notion that harmful chemicals are indispensable for meeting the demands of a growing population. The advantages of transitioning to natural farming in Andhra Pradesh have gone beyond just yields. Farmers who used agroecological approaches received higher incomes as well, while villages that used natural farming had higher employment rates. Thanks to greater crop diversity in their farming practice, farmers using agroecology had greater dietary diversity in their households than conventional farmers. The number of ‘sick days’ needed by farmers using natural farming was also significantly lower than those working on chemically-intensive farms. Another important finding was the significant increase in social ‘capital’: community cohesion was higher in natural farming villages, and knowledge sharing had greatly increased—significantly aided by women. The implications for these findings are significant: community-managed natural farming can support not just food security goals, but also sustainable economic development and human development. The study overall sheds light on a promising and optimistic path toward addressing geopolitical and climate impacts, underlining the critical significance of food sovereignty and access to nourishing, wholesome food for communities. Contrary to the misconception that relentlessly increasing food production is the sole solution to cater to a growing population, the truth reveals a different story. While striving for higher yields remains important, the root cause of hunger worldwide does not lie in scarcity, as farmers already produce more than enough to address it. Instead, food insecurity is primarily driven by factors such as poverty, lack of democracy, poor distribution, a lack of post-harvest handling, waste, and unequal access to resources.

Embroidered floor spreads like this one were exported in great numbers to Europe from the Portuguese-controlled port of Goa on India��s west coast. This led to the idea that they were either made in Portugal or influenced by Portuguese embroidery styles. They were, however, produced in India and owe their colours and interpretation of floral motifs to English embroidery of the 17th century. This floor spread could have been made for export or for use at the court of Hyderabad.

India’s Sustainable, Futuristic City Amaravati Resumes Construction

First announced in 2018, Amaravati was unveiled as a city of the future, set in the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh. Billed as a sustainable, futuristic, and idealistic new city, it was paused during the global pandemic, without confidence it would ever restart. Considered the new administrative capital of the Indian state, the plan was audacious when first announced.

Now, the city’s paused construction is starting again, including the buildout of some administrative buildings, and a 189 km long ORR, or Outer Ring Road.

We tend to treat bright tropical sunlight as an actinic agent that deteriorates and damages structures. And indeed it does. Everything from medicine tablets and liquids, to beach-chairs, wine and of course us, wrinkling under the Sun, are damaged by it.

But on occasion sunlight can create poetry - and purity - as witness the remnants of this crustacean carapace bleached into a beautiful eburnean white by the relentless sun, giving the dead beast a second resurrection as it were, it exhibiting far greater alabaster beauty in death than it did in life, beautifully coloured though it was even in life.
